This actually happened once before, back in 1977, but since 1991 Dark Horse has released the Star Wars issues, including the ‘Star Wars #1’ comic in 2013 that is the top selling issue of all-time. In discussing the partnership and release of the issues, the Director of Lucasfilm Publishing, Carol Roeder, said, “Dark Horse Comics published exceptional Star Wars comics for over 20 years, and we will always be grateful for their enormous contributions to the mythos, and the terrific partnership that we had. In 2015, the cosmic adventures of Luke, Han, Leia and Chewbacca will make the lightspeed jump back to Marvel, to begin a new age of adventures within the Star Wars universe.”

The new comics and graphic novels will come out in the sam year the next installment to the Star Wars franchise in 2015.
